‘I consider that’s a bunch of woo woo hooey!’ 1
That’s the sentiment of a non-believer friend,
Who thinks anything spiritual is …phooey,
Not worth the time or effort that, on it, folks spend.
And you know what? He has a lot of company,
Folks who firmly believe to life, there’s nothing more,
Than that which we experience, consciously.
Any notions of more, some folks really abhor!
Yet, as secularists, these folk cannot deny,
That on many prophetic points, The Bible ‘got it right!’
Some historical facts on which we all rely,
Began as prophetic seeds, sown in hearts that were …upright. 2
In the fullness of time, from these seeds, fruits burst forth,
And manifested the things or conditions …pre-revealed,
Some hundreds, and even thousands of years before!
Ahhh, that’s evidence of power from a realm …that’s concealed!
‘Show me some evidentiary proof!’, the skeptics insist,
When some notions of yet-fulfilled prophecies arise.
To connect prophetic fruits to such notions, they resist.
Though on history they rely, their faith it doesn’t advise!
Tsk, tsk, tsk...
Folks,
Prophecy is The Lord God’s calling card,
To a world largely skeptic that He even exists!
It’s fulfillment is proof that should discard,
Any and all of our doubts that linger and persist.
But so very sadly, it doesn’t.
And folks who insist on holding onto their doubts,
Of this they are not cognizant:
Even their stubborn doubts are …prophetic fruit sprouts!!! 3
Friends, beware if you, like my friend, may think,
All spiritual notions are …woo woo hooey.
To un-fulfilled prophecies, you’re a key link:
Fruit soon cast down after …reaching your apogee. 4

1 Superstitious, irrational, non-sense beliefs or practices
2 Consider the countless prophecies about Israel, both ancient and modern. (Deuteronomy 4, 30, Isaiah 66:8 and Israel becoming a nation state) See also: The Lord’s predicted judgment tactics He uses against persistent sinfulness in any land. (Deuteronomy 32, Leviticus 26 and Ezekiel 5 and14). The Bible is undeniably jam-packed with innumerable historical facts, prophecies fulfilled.
3 These folks don't even realize they, themselves, are fulfilling prophecies! See: 1 Corinthians 2:14, 2 Peter 3:3-4, 2 Timothy 3:1- 17 and 4:3, Jude 7 and 18
4 As ‘in the fullness of your time’.
